CAUTION CHOOSE an INTRODUCTION  AGENCY CAREFULLY! 

With 24 years experience  as the top introduction agency for professionals in the UK we offer you this advice.  Only  join an introduction  agency that has been vetted and approved  by the official trade body, The  Association of British Introduction Agencies ( ABIA).  The ABIA is  the only official trade body set up in conjunction with The Office of fair Trading,  to set and monitor the standards of behaviour of  introduction agencies in the UK.  ABIA  members are obliged to give certain minimum safeguards to their clients.

The association will upon request  investigate free of charge on a client’s behalf, serious complaints such as poor service, exaggerated claims,sharp sales practice etc. The ABIA can put pressure on a dating  agency to make refunds to their clients and can exclude dating agencies from the ABIA. In the unlikely event the  introduction  agency goes out of business, other ABIA introduction agencies will at no further cost to you, continue to provide a service to you,  If you join a non ABIA approved dating agency and get a poor service then you are on your own.

If you’ve had a poor deal from any dating agency and want advice on how to go about getting a refund  see www.datingagencyforlondon.co.uk a helpful site to assist you get a better service from ANY dating agency. If you beleive you’ve had a poor service from an ABIA approved introduction agency, then you can raise a formal complaint with the ABIA and they will investigate on your behalf the complaint without charge. They also have an arbitration system as an alternative to having to take the matter to the  Small Claims Court. For more information about the ABIA click on the "Home page" above. IF YOU JOIN A GOOD DATING AGENCY it  will significantly increase your chances of meeting  someone nice enough to be your lifetime.

TIPS:

1. Before joining any introduction agency ask the agency to put in writing how many introductions you should  receive in 1 year AND the MINIMUM number you will receive or have the right to a full or partial refund. If you don't we know of some clients who have had less than 2 dates in a whole year against a guaranteed 8  then your membership is extended until you receive the minimum and that could take many many years. Indeed one non ABIA agencies contract stated that  it will provide at least ONE introduction within SIX MONTHS for your £12,000 fee ?? ( even if you refuse to meet that was it!).

2. Never join the first dating agency you contact, talk to at least two or three dating agencies before deciding which one is best for you.

3. Always ask the PRICE they charge BEFORE attending an interview. You can see what prices ABIA agencies charge ( click on "Home" page above> for further details), or for the main professional introduction agencies see www.professionalintroductionagencies.co.uk

 4. Ask for a copy of their contract to read BEFORE attending an interview - AND READ IT.  If the first time you see a contract is at the interview there is no sensible reason why you have to sign it there and then, think it over, at least overnight, especially if  the introduction agency is expensive. If you sign, then change your mind the next day some agencies will charge you well over £1000.

 A good introduction agency will make a huge difference to your chances of finding a partner.

This site is sponsored by The Executive Club of St James's www.execclub.net to assist the public choose a reputable introduction agency that  suits their needs and help them to avoid  the dubious dating agencies that unfortunately exist.  Most dating agencies however are honest and hardworking on your behalf .Their is no "best dating agency" different introduction agencies specialise  to provide a niche markey product. Introduction agencies specialising in professionals are always expensive to join and run, if you could marry a bank counter clerk or really nice sales assistant you do not need to join an expensive professional introduction agency a local dating agency would probably give you abetter service and at 25% of the price of a good London Professional Dating Agency  - Good Luck
